My beloved, today we celebrate our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who has risen from the dead 2000 years ago.
"He has risen! He has risen, indeed!"This is a very significant day - not simply just for Christians - for Christ. The entire Bible points to this important moment. The Old Testament forth-tell this event. The New Testament (after the Gospels) points back to this event, and points toward the future hope that Christians have with Christ.
I'm going to provide a list of verses and reasons (not exhaustive) that shows why this day is significant.
